My father and I just finished The Last Mapmaker by Christina Soontornvat

My father and I just finished The Last Mapmaker by Christina Soontornvat.
 
In the Mangkon empire where lineage is everything, the only hope for a conman's daughter is an adventure on the high seas to find and map a land out of legend. Little did Sai, Assistant Mapmaker, know that she would also be charting the courses of her beliefs both in herself and others, what she wants versus what she knows is right, and truths about her homeland and crew-mates. A splendid little Thai-inspired Fantasy filled with storms, discoveries, and wrecks both on and off the ship, this is a tale of self-exploration while boldly sailing into terra incognita. Here Be Dragons; or better yet, Slakes.
 
Fare ye well Sai, Master Paiyoon, Bo, Captain Sangra, and the rest of the crew. Good job pulling the tail from the teeth.
